Merry Christmas and 73 to all! David

The attached manual may help. I don't think there is much difference between the LA-600 and LA-650. 73 David

Codeman, I came into the possession of the 139 many years ago. It was re-capped about 3 years ago. Then the driver and finals went south and the power supply took a dump. It is all stock except for the extra channels on the CB/PA switch and the PA jack on the rear converted to a foot key jack...

No problems making contacts today. I hit Northern Ireland this morning and Southern California this afternoon. Yesterday several contacts to England. I have been monitoring most of the weekend and heard many stations. I only called CQ a few times to check conditions. Using vintage gear today...

Here is the T Bear schematic from CB-155. Good Luck. 73 David

Same here, I only take on projects that interest ME! It's not for the money (and I do have a 60-70 hour a week job) I just cannot sit idle. It is something I have been interested in for over 50 years and cold weather does not work well with me doing the wife's "Outside Projects". I keep thinking...

I have ordered from this seller before. No issues. Quality products. 73 David

I’m just going to leave these 2 pages from Lou’s assembly/installation instructions. It may help “tamp down” the squeal in some applications. I have one of these boards and have built it but never installed it in any radio. May try it soon since this thread reminded me that I even had the board...

If you could find a Model D-1 Pal "Tuning Monitor" in semi decent condition, it could be attached to your Johnson 223. See the attachments concerning installation/operation. 73 David

All I can add is……………. Bobby is one helluva stand up guy!!!! 73 David P.S. Why sell when I’m broke?:cry:

What is wrong with your TS440? I have “rehabbed” several. I am not an expert by any means but all of those I have worked on are still working. 73 David

“They keep trying to find ways to separate you from your money.” That would be ex-wife No. 2! Warning heeded. Thanks Jeff 73 David

I’m throwing in for one of your new in the box Browning Mark II sets you have my friend! :giggle: 73 David

I would set the reflector at 5% longer than the driven and the Director at 5% shorter. I recently went thru the same exercise with a 10 year old Hygain beam. Good luck. 73 David

I had an inductor on a TS440 bite me once. All of the dreaded dots on display. Reworked the PLL board, repaired thousands of solder joints on every board in the unit, and every other suggested repair for the dots on display. Found an inductor (on the RF board if I remember correctly) bad...

I am getting close to finishing a “Frankenstein” radio and need to add a “Modulation” indicator circuit to the PLL02 chassis I transplanted into the 23 channel base station chassis I am using. The Base station chassis was originally equipped with an “On Air” indicator and have that handled...

sp5it, Same info I had. Will post the entire service manual here just in case someone else needs it. 73 David

I believe I have that on my shop computer. Pretty sure it is in the 2995dx service manual. Will try to dig it up later today. 73 David
